Acknowledgments
The Little Green Data Book 2005 is based on World Development Indicators
2005 and its accompanying CD-ROM. Defining, gathering, and disseminating
international statistics is a collective effort of many people and organizations.
The indicators presented in World Development Indicators are the fruit of
decades of work at many levels, from the field workers who administer
censuses and household surveys to the committees and working parties of
the national and international statistical agencies that develop the nomen-
clature, classifications, and standards fundamental to the international sta-
tistical system. Nongovernmental organizations have also made important
contributions. We are indebted to the World Development Indicators network
of partners, as detailed in World Development Indicators 2005. The financial
assistance of the Government of Sweden is gratefully acknowledged.
The Little Green Data Book is the result of close collaboration between the
staff of the Environment Department and the Development Economics Data
Group. Mehdi Akhlaghi, Mahyar Eshragh-Tabary, Richard Fix, Kirk Hamilton,
Saeed Ordoubadi, Giovanni Ruta, and Alexandra Sears contributed to its
preparation. Jim Cantrell designed the cover. Cover photographs are from Kirk
Hamilton and the World Bank photo archives. The book was edited, designed,
and laid out by Meta de Coquereaumont, Christopher Trott, and Elaine Wilson
of Communications Development Incorporated in Washington, D.C.

Foreword
The 2005 edition of The Little Green Data Book coincides with important trans-
formations linked to sustainable development. This year will be remembered
for the entry into force of the Kyoto Protocol. It also marked a renewed com-
mitment by the G-8 countries to foster development in Africa. Finally, this year
will witness the reconstruction efforts following the tsunami disaster in South
and East Asia.
Development and poverty alleviation—the World Bank’s mission—call for a
long-term vision. Enhancing environmental quality, improving natural resource
management, and maintaining global ecosystems are all important steps
toward this goal. Better environmental management can improve people’s
livelihoods, health, and security today and in the future.
To achieve these lasting results we need to start from a sound base of infor-
mation that helps us set priorities and measure progress toward environ-
mental sustainability goals. The Little Green Data Book is a step in this
direction, with key indicators of the environment and its relationship to peo-
ple for more than 200 countries. This year’s edition includes new indicators
for fish catch, in the agriculture and fisheries section, and biomass fuel use,
in the energy section. While there are gaps and shortcomings in the data, we
hope this book will inspire decisionmakers at all levels to use this informa-
tion and to seek to fill the gaps for their own countries. We welcome your sug-
gestions on how future editions can be improved and made more useful.

Data notes
The data in this book are for the most recent year for which data are available
between 1999 and 2003, unless otherwise noted in the glossary. Regional
aggregates include data for low- and middle-income economies only. Aggregates
for regions and income groups are shown only if data are available for 66 per-
cent of the economies in that group.
Symbols used:
.. means that data are not available or that aggregates cannot be
calculated because of missing data.
0 or 0.0 means zero or less than half the unit shown.
$ means current U.S. dollars.
Data are shown for economies with populations greater than 30,000 and for
smaller economies if they are members of the World Bank. The term country
(used interchangeably with economy) does not imply political independence
or official recognition by the World Bank but refers to any economy for which
the authorities report separate social or economic statistics.
In keeping with World Development Indicators 2005, The Little Green Data Book
2005 uses terminology in line with the 1993 System of National Accounts
(SNA). In particular, gross national income (GNI) is used in place of gross
national product (GNP).

Income group tables
For operational and analytical purposes the World Bank’s main criterion for
classifying economies is gross national income (GNI) per capita. Every econ-
omy is classified as low income, middle income (subdivided into lower middle
and upper middle), or high income. Low- and middle-income economies are
sometimes referred to as developing economies. The use of the term is con-
venient; it is not intended to imply that all economies in the group are expe-
riencing similar development or that other economies have reached a
preferred or final stage of development. Note that classification by income
does not necessarily reflect development status.
Low-income economies are those with a GNI per capita of $765 or less in 2003.
Middle-income economies are those with a GNI per capita of more than $765
but less than $9,386.
Lower-middle-income and upper-middle-income economies are separated at
a GNI per capita of $3,035.
High-income economies are those with a GNI per capita of $9,386 or more.
The 12 participating member countries of the European Monetary Union
are Austria, Belgium, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Italy,
Luxembourg, Netherlands, Portugal, and Spain.

Glossary
Access to an improved water source refers to the share of the population with
reasonable access to an adequate amount of water from an improved
source, such as a household connection, public standpipe, borehole, pro-
tected well or spring, or rainwater collection. Unimproved sources include
vendors, tanker trucks, and unprotected wells and springs. Reasonable
access to an adequate amount is defined as the availability of at least 20
liters a person a day from a source within one kilometer of the dwelling.
(World Health Organization; the data are for 2002)
Access to sanitation is the share of population with access to at least ade-

quate excreta disposal facilities (private or shared, but not public) that can
effectively prevent human, animal, and insect contact with excreta.
Improved facilities range from simple but protected pit latrines to flush toi-
lets with a sewerage connection. To be effective, facilities must be cor-
rectly constructed and properly maintained. (World Health Organization;
the data are for 2002)
Adjusted net savings are equal to gross national savings minus consumption of
fixed capital, plus education expenditures and minus energy depletion, min-
eral depletion, net forest depletion, and particulate matter and carbon diox-
ide damage. In cases where data are not available, adjusted net savings do
not include particulate emission damage. (World Bank; the data are for 2003)
Agricultural land refers to the share of land area that is arable, under per-
manent crops, and under permanent pastures. Arable land includes land
defined by the Food and Agriculture Organization as land under temporary
crops (double-cropped areas are counted once), temporary meadows for
mowing or for pasture, land under market or kitchen gardens, and land
temporarily fallow. Land abandoned as a result of shifting cultivation is
excluded. Land under permanent crops is land cultivated with crops that
occupy the land for long periods and need not be replanted after each har-
vest, such as cocoa, coffee, and rubber. This category includes land under

sured in oil equivalents. A negative value indicates that the country is a
net exporter. (International Energy Agency; the data are for 2002)
Energy use per capita refers to apparent consumption, which is equal to indige-
nous production plus imports and stock changes, minus exports and fuels
supplied to ships and aircraft engaged in international transport.
(International Energy Agency; the data are for 2002)
Environmental strategies and action plans provide a comprehensive, cross-sec-

toral analysis of conservation and resource management issues to help
integrate environmental concerns into the development process. They
include national conservation strategies, national environmental action
plans, national environmental management strategies, and national sus-
tainable development strategies. The year shown for a country refers to the

able, where there is significant water reuse, or where there are significant
inflows. (World Resources Institute; the data are for various years; for details
see Primary Data Documentation in World Development Indicators 2005)
Freshwater withdrawals, agriculture, are freshwater withdrawals for irrigation

and livestock production as a share of total freshwater withdrawal. (World
Resources Institute; the data are for various years; for details see Primary
Data Documentation in World Development Indicators 2005)
GDP per unit of energy use is 2000 GDP in purchasing power parity (PPP) terms
per kilogram of oil equivalent of commercial energy use. PPP GDP is gross
domestic product converted to international dollars using PPP rates. An
international dollar has the same purchasing power over GDP as a U.S.
dollar has in the United States. (International Energy Agency, World Bank;
GDP is gross domestic product, which measures the total output of goods and
services for final use occurring within the domestic territory of a given coun-
try, regardless of the allocation to domestic and foreign claims. GDP at pur-
chaser values (market prices) is the sum of gross value added by all resident
and nonresident producers in the economy plus any taxes and minus any
subsidies not included in the value of the products. It is calculated without
making deductions for depreciation of fabricated assets or for depletion and
degradation of natural resources. (World Bank, Organisation for Economic
Co-operation and Development, United Nations; the data are for 2003)
GNI per capita is gross national income (formerly called gross national prod-
uct or GNP) divided by midyear population. GNI is the sum of gross value
added by all resident producers plus any taxes (less subsidies) that are
not included in the valuation of output plus net receipts of primary income
(employee compensation and property income) from nonresident
sources. GNI per capita is in current U.S. dollars, converted using the
World Bank Atlas method; see Statistical Methods in World Development
Indicators 2005. (World Bank, Organisation for Economic Co-operation
and Development, United Nations; the data are for 2003)

2005 and its accompanying CD-ROM. Defining, gathering, and disseminating

international statistics is a collective effort of many people and organizations.

The indicators presented in World Development Indicators are the fruit of

censuses and household surveys to the committees and working parties of

clature, classifications, and standards fundamental to the international sta-

tistical system. Nongovernmental organizations have also made important

contributions. We are indebted to the World Development Indicators network

of partners, as detailed in World Development Indicators 2005. The financial

assistance of the Government of Sweden is gratefully acknowledged.

Development and poverty alleviation—the World Bank’s mission—call for a

long-term vision. Enhancing environmental quality, improving natural resource

management, and maintaining global ecosystems are all important steps

toward this goal. Better environmental management can improve people’s

livelihoods, health, and security today and in the future.
